OhiO's Protest Against Snrrendering
the Captured Confederate ColOrs.

Columbus, Ohio, special TO the Philadelphia Press.
Gov. Foraker has been receiving kilograms from
Union veteran soldiers In all parts OF the State
pressing their Indignation OF the order by Prest-
dent Cleveland to the Secretary OF War 10 return
to the Southern States all Confederate flags cap
tured In battle. These kilograms urge the gov
ernor TO protest against any OF the flags captured
by Ohio regiments being taken, and ask that he
communicate with the President with q view or
having the order revoked. The governor expresses
the belief that the President has no authority ID
issue such an order, and has replied TO many OF
flags taken In battle and held at the relic room
VIII be removed while he is governor. Among
kilograms he received was one from the Ohio
Department Commander OF the Grand Army OF the
Republic, representing $1,000 ex-soldiers, who
asked that he forward their views 70 the President.
The governor did this and added on his own &C.
count:
'.In transmitting this message desire 70 comply
with its request, anu do most earnestly protest
